Microwave reviews you can trust

Models from the biggest microwave brands are tested at the Which? Test Lab – including Panasonic, Samsung, LG, Siemens and Bosch. We also test microwaves from cheaper brands and from supermarkets. Our tests include real food, such as minced beef and fairy cakes, and we carry out 10 ease-of-use assessments on each model including how easy they are to set, how clear the instructions are to follow and how easy it is to open and close the door.

Which? is independent - we work for you, the consumer, so you can be sure that our product recommendations are influenced only by our test results. We don't take advertising and we buy all the products that we test ourselves, so our advice helps you to make the right choice first time and avoid costly mistakes.
